The Indiana residential purchase and sale agreement is a contract between a buyer and seller that specifies conditions for the sale of residential property. The buyer’s agent typically prepares the contract due to the complex nature of the document.
Before signing, buyers should ensure they understand and are content with the proposed sales price, closing date, earnest money deposit, and any contingencies the offer includes. The completed contract will be presented to the seller, who can then choose to take the offer as is, decline it, or make a counteroffer, at which point the final agreement can be executed.
